6/10 Bagus
7 September 2024
This was probably the weirdest hotel experience in my life. The huge manor has been converted to a hotel but has been neglected recently (including a time housing asylum seekers - Google it). The time around 10 of the 100+ rooms are being used so you “rattle around” especially when you’re the only guests!!
The hotel needs investment but it has so much potential and you can imagine it being a thriving hotel in the past. Imagine Covid and only a few rooms allowed to open. We knew there were no food and drink facilities so took our own.
The 2 staff we met were really friendly and we spoke to them a lot about the history of the building and how it was as it currently is.
The room we had was clean, lovely new bathroom, kettle, TV and the best hotel WiFi I’ve seen (300mbs!). The public areas weren’t great and as I say, need investment.
It was hard to imagine this as a busy hotel, but was hosting weddings up to 18months ago. The grounds are well maintained by Paul (the gardener) and the building is amazing. But take a time to see the unused empty pool and vandalised gym buildings.
Just impossible, despite my efforts, to explain the experience!!! It’s like Chernobyl where, abandoned and intriguing in equal measure. Not worth £150 unless, like me, you’re fascinated by the place!!
